No! The reason why is because of what Basco commonly said and lived by: "Can't gain something without giving something up (or to the effect of this)!" He took this mantra and ran with it with everything he did: Betraying Marvelous and AkaRed, Using Ranger Keys and sacrificing Extra Hero and Sixth Ranger Keys, allying with and betraying Zangyack and Damaras, shooting and not caring when Sally blew-up! The reason this matters is because Basco was ultimately proven right: The Greatest Treasure would use the 34 Super Sentai Powers and erase them from existence and history to reshape the Universe-- "Can't gain something without giving something up"! The Gokaiger saw what happened in their lives and how it shaped them and how the history of Super Sentai shaped the Earth and its people, and the core five Gokaiger told the "I love Super Sentai, but let's just wish Zangyack away!" Gai to ignore the Treasure they spent the series trying to obtain. The cost was just too high! By dismissing the Treasure, they fought and defeated Zangyack and had a fantastic battle against Akudos Gill in the finale, and since Zangyack is considered a powerful universal force since the beginning and Gai's dream was to stop Zangyack, it all added-up in the end! Basco couldn't have followed through in the long run!
